Hori has specifically announced a new and official racing wheel for the Nintendo Switch 2 and Mario Kart World, stylized after the latter. In other words, a Mario Kart World racing wheel has been announced, though it will not be limited to just Mario Kart World. Amazon has already launched pre-orders for the Switch 2 accessory, which is set to release on March 23. Those interested will need to hand over $129.99.
Officially Licensed Nintendo Product
As you can tell via the image below, this is an officially licensed Nintendo product, with an ergonomic design, textured grips, and racing paddles with the aim of simulating a real racing wheel. The wheel is a full-sized racing wheel at 11 inches, complete with a pedal set. It connects to the console via a 9.8-foot USB-A cable and can be mounted with either sanction cups or a clamp. Meanwhile, it has onboard controls and buttons that can be reprogrammed to your liking.
For those unfamiliar with Hori, it is a widely known manufacturer of Nintendo accessories and has made many officially licensed products in the past. And for the most part, it offers decent quality products for competitive prices. Whether this wheel will be up to snuff remains to be seen. It hasn’t shipped yet, so there are no user reviews, and no previews/reviews have been published by the press.
